Abstract

The invention discloses a method for treating bastnasite concentrate. The method comprises the following steps: (1) conducting ball-milling treatment on the bastnasite concentrate to obtain bastnasite concentrate particles; (2) mixing the bastnasite concentrate particles with concentrated sulfuric acid to cure the bastnasite concentrate particles so as to obtain cured ore; (3) conducting slurry mixing on the cured ore, and conducting water immersion and filtration so as to obtain leach liquor and leach residue; (4) conducting extraction treatment on the leach liquor to obtain tombarthite and thorium containing extract liquor; (5) conducting reverse extraction treatment on the thorium containing extract liquor to obtain thorium nitrate. According to the method, Sichuan bastnasite concentrate can be effectively treated, the process is simple, the REO leaching rate is high, the energy consumption is low, the auxiliary material consumption is less, the radioactive thorium content is greatly reduced in the standard range, the fluorine and radioactive thorium emission in the whole process can be avoided, the leach residue can be directly discharged after being subjected to water washing, the environment can be protected, the tombarthite can be efficiently separated, the fluorine and thorium resources can be comprehensively utilized, and the method is a clean and new production process for metallurgical treatment of the bastnasite concentrate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of metallurgy, in particular, the invention relates to a treatment method of bastnaesite concentrate. Background technique [0002] my country is a country rich in rare earth resources in the world. Commonly used rare earth concentrates mainly include Baotou mixed rare earth concentrate (fluorocarbon ore and monazite), Sichuan rare earth concentrate (bastnaesium), Shandong Weishan rare earth concentrate (fluorocarbon Cerium), ion-adsorbed concentrates (seven southern provinces such as Jiexi, Pingyuan, Xunwu, Longnan, Chongzuo and other goblin concentrates, of which REO (rare earth oxides) accounted for 92%), monazite concentrates in Guangdong and Hunan . For bastnaesite, due to the different mineral forms, the physical and chemical properties of bastnaesite in different regions often have major differences. Sichuan bastnaesite is the second largest rare earth resource in my country, but the physical and chemical forms...
